The concert style is very classical as Frangoulis stated "I particularly like the Gala Tour concept because it brings us both back to our roots in the theatre and classical music"[8] Brightman said in an interview "The concert has a hollywood feel about it, I'm doing beautiful classical pieces and crossover pieces... In all it will be a very rich concert, very glamorous looking and will take us back in time".[9]

She uses different gowns, Park Jin-han from Korea Times wrote: "As the sound of wind meets the audience and the stage gleams with an eerie red light, Sarah Brightman, one of the world's most popular English classical crossover singers, appears on stage in a glittering silver dress and sings the theme song of the musical The Phantom of the Opera. [10]

In Antalya's concert an orchestra of 50 have accompanied her on the stage. Sarah opened her concert with "Harem" which gave its name to her 7th album that hit the shelves in 2003, singing famous arias and crossover hits during the concert but also she invited Erkan Aki to sing with her some duets.[7]

The Gala show received positive reviews from critics. Park Jin-han from Korea Times wrote: "Her voice had such power, striking hard and strong at once and yet soft and tender as well.".[10] Antalya Expo's official website wrote: "Singing famous opera and classical music pieces during the concert, British soprano made the audience impressed by her strong voice and style."[7]
